When Matt Davis considered the assignment of promoting the Florida Marlins on bus shelters from Coconut Creek to the Keys, he realized, unlike highway billboards, the artwork would actually be within the public's reach.

"For a brief second I thought `what if angry Cubs and Yankees fans decide they don't like them very much?'" said Davis, art director at Fort Lauderdale-based Zimmerman & Partners.

To thwart anti-Marlins messages, Zimmerman enlisted five South Florida graffiti artists to add their own mark to the team's "Go Fish!" series of posters. Among the "official" graffiti: yellow flames shooting from speedy center fielder Juan Pierre's body; a magnet around third baseman Mike Lowell's glove.

On Thursday, Benhur "Sito" Barrero, 26, a Hollywood graphic designer and music producer, demonstrated his technique at Pro Player Stadium, adding a rocket ship and the words "Boom, It's Gone" to a poster of outfielder Miguel Cabrera, and a lightning bolt coming from pitcher Josh Beckett's glove.

The Marlins, including team owner and art dealer Jeffrey Loria, embraced the edgy ad campaign, which they hope will attract a younger crowd, said Sean Flynn, Marlins vice president of marketing.

The individually painted posters, which are part of the Marlins' $1.25 million "Go Fish!" advertising campaign, grace 30 bus shelters. When the ads are taken down this fall, the pieces will be autographed and auctioned for charity.

Despite being members of the 2003 World Series championship team, both Pierre and Lowell seemed surprised to be featured on billboards and bus shelters.

"It still amazes me, I would be posterized," Pierre said.

"These guys definitely are artists," Lowell said. "This puts a unique aspect on getting the word out there about the Marlins."

Three as one and one as Minority. Angel, Sito Oner Rock & Cy have been on the grind since late 1998 in and out of any studio that would provide studio time in exchange for beats that they produced or in exchange for graphic design that Minority was capable of doing.

While recording the album, Minority wasted no time performing all across South Florida.
